Episode 54: IVF Abroad in Mexico with IVF_denisejohnson
Saison 3 · Épisode 54
samedi 20 avril 2024 • Durée 01:00:24
This episode is about IVF Abroad in Mexico
As you all know by now, I’m traveling to Canada for my next IVF cycle. I’ve definitely encountered some challenges and differences, but now that I know what to expect, I’ve settled in a bit. But, today is not about Canada. I’ll create that episode once I’m done with my cycle. Today is about IVF in Mexico and this is from a perspective of one of our Warriors, Denise of IVF_denisejohnson. We talk about her experiences in Mexico and her experiences here in the US and we talk about the the advantages and disadvantages. Of course for many, cost is a big factor and for those who are not able to afford IVF in the US, traveling out of the country might be something to look into.
So, if you’re curious or you’re thinking about IVF outside of the US and in particular, Mexico. This is your episode.
Thank you so much for sharing your story Denise! I’m so grateful to have you on. By the way, this was recorded forever ago and I’m finally getting to releasing it! Thank you for your patience Denise!!

mardi 17 octobre 2023 • Durée 02:24:36
Well, I’ve been missing for a couple of months and I’m so sorry about that. As you can tell, I am under the weather currently and this gave me the opportunity to focus on the podcast episodes, so maybe it was a blessing in disguise. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, I am SOOOO grateful to all of the guests, listeners, and supporters who have been so patient with me as I navigate being infertile and having a podcast about infertility. Thank you so much for your grace.
Today’s episode isn’t about me though. It’s about Rebecca @callthestork on Instagram. She’s here today to talk to us about her experience. Full disclosure, we recorded this a year ago. So, her circumstances today are a little different, but her experience is still very valid. We cover quite a bit today including her multiple autoimmune disorders and how she has gone through 6 IVF cycles, PRP, endometriosis excision surgery, disagreements with moving forward with expanding her family, and ultimately conceiving naturally.
We certainly go over a lot and she has so much to share. We spend the first part of the episode really talking about her retrievals and in the second half really breaking things down.
Rebecca has always been so kind and thoughtful. She’s always taken time out to check on me and after my laparoscopy she was messaging me regularly and letting me know to take it easy and reminded me to slow down. She’s been one of the really truly amazing humans I’ve been along this space and I’m so grateful for that.
I hope you’ll enjoy today’s episode! Thank you again for your patients! They’ll be quite a few more episodes coming your way! I’ve got to play catch up! Stay tuned!

We talk about the conversations we have with families about donor conception and the conversations we think about having with our children.
I do want to warn you, there was a bit of audio trouble and for some reason, the tail end of the interview was lost, so you’ll have to forgive me for that.
Becky has some wonderful advice and tools to share with you today, so please listen to this episode if you’re considering or struggling with donor conception.
Thank you Becky for your candor, your vulnerability, your advice and your support of all of us who hope to be parents one day.

Saison 2 · Épisode 39
dimanche 9 avril 2023 • Durée 01:45:51
Today, I’m honored to have my friend Nicole a fellow IVF and endometriosis and adneomysosis warrior on the show to share her story.
On this episode, we’re talking about her 4 laparoscopies and what recovery was like for her since we don’t really talk about recovery often. We share our 2 very different recoveries.
We also discuss infertility at 40, finding the right doctor, and pelvic floor physical therapy.
Nichole is one of the first people that I talked to about endometriosis and she introduced me to Kate @endogirlblog if you follow her. I messaged her during my endometriosis laparoscopy recovery and she helped me prepare for recovery, which was so helpful.
Nichole is so amazing, kind, and I love her honesty! She’ll tell you like it is! So, if you want an honest opinion about something, she’s not shy and will give it to your straight, which is what we need sometimes!
So, if you’re wondering about laparoscopic excision recovery, IVF in your 40s, or finding the right doctor and how she has navigated through this, this is your episode.
